Sprinkle blue, blue, Kangxi official kiln in the sprinkle blue to paint the golden cloud dragon, radiant, vibrant. It is made by applying a layer of white glaze, then a layer of blue glaze, then a thin glaze, and finally a golden pattern. Accumulation blue is also called Ji blue, the method is different from sprinkling blue, it is to fuse blue and glaze juice and hang it on the porcelain fetus, and do not first apply white glaze. For this reason, the glaze of Zo blue is thicker than that of Sprinkle Blue, and the color is about the same.
As for the more intense cyan, it is called sky blue. The light blue and almost green is called emerald blue. Deep blue with sesame star is called caviar blue, which means that it has a similar shape, not that it has a caviar color. As for the blue and purple harmonizing with each other and the blue color is particularly strong, it is called felt wrapped green, which is also a hobby of the curious.
Doucai, what is Doucai? Because the pattern depicted is the most bean green, accounting for five or six tenths, it is called bean color. Or it is called fighting color, because it seems that flowers compete with each other. Or it is called comics, which means that the juxtaposition of the painted connection is like a comic combination. In fact, this is all the businessmen's voice to each other, tossing and turning, and it is not a correct explanation. This kind of glaze is the most exquisite in the Kangxi and Yongzheng periods, and the figures, flowers, birds and beasts are all brilliant, delicate and lovely. After arriving in Qianlong, I like to make a group color, and I am a little less funny. However, there is a kind of verdant beauty in the gorgeous, which can be appreciated and elegantly played, and it is precious.
Various yellows Yellow is also the color advocated during the Xuande period. At that time, the color was as dark as dense wax, so that it had the name of Xuanhuang. In the Jiajing period, it began to be mixed with blue and white, the color is like caviar, and the dark one is also called chanterelle yellow. After Kangxi, he exclusively advocated light yellow, collectively known as egg yolk. Among them, the darker one is called cooked egg yolk, and the slightly lighter one is called raw egg yolk. If it is a combination of black and green, it is called tea powder. The origin of tea powder is the ancient, one is pure tea powder, and the other is impure tea powder. The color that is not pure is either yellow or green. Pure is like grinding tea leaves into fine powder and blending in the glaze, the tone is elegant and quiet, enough to appreciate. The one that is slightly black and surrounded by yellow dots is called eel skin, which is also pictographic. Others, like snuff, vegetable tail, and old monk's clothes, are all variants of tea powder. The snuff is the most intense in color, and the tail is lighter. As for the yellow, black, and purple colors that are fused together and piled up into spots, they are called tiger skin spots. It was a fashion by accident, but now no one cares about it. Adding gold flowers to the golden sauce glaze is also advocated during the Qianlong period, but most of them are small pieces, and after all, they cannot be large products like Ding and Yi.
